does it have any anti-virus protection,or any security

No, best to invest in one. Even if Windows comes preloaded on your tower, it won't even come close to deal with all the spy/malware and viruses out there.

yes it does, but anti virus and windows office are trial periods of 30 days. buy new instead of refurbished. had to send mine back and it was replaced, took almost 4 weeks.

sorry it took longer than expected to answer. I ran a virus scan and a malware scan and the system is clean. No viruses and no malware whatsoever. You're good to go!

Not 100% sure, but it is a more advanced version. I suggest going on Norton's website where they have a video of what the differences is between the two. I may have even seen the video on Amazon. Their video convinced me to go up from the regular anti-virus to the security for more protection with internet buying and banking. Hope this helps.

It has a few Lenovo made software such as the piano app that's very cool, a few touch enabled games and support software. It has a 30 day trial of McAfee Internet security. Other than that is a very clean install, no bloat ware.

Windows 7 was installed. Like any other computer "off the shelf" you are on your own for anti-virus. I use the AVG free version, myself, and have never had any problems.

Mr/Ms/Mrs Donovan, I dont think it does. I have downloaded AVG Free for Tablets and that works well with whatever virus protections my ISP offers.

I bought this as an Anti-Virus. If you go to the web site it lists what this covers. I received the CD and box which lists it as an Anti-Virus. For Anti-Malware I also use SuperAntiSpyware.

I do not know, I do not understand your question sorry. All I can tell you is that since I have avast PRO in my computer I am safe and no viruses. I have it for several years already. I also have it installed in my outlook and in my google chrome and I am happy.

That is one of the reasons I bought a chrome box. I had assumed that since there was no real operating system that there would be no problems with viruses. So far so good!Art

I do not have (because I have not seen a need for) an external anti-virus program. But, I am sure someone else's opinion would be that you do need one.

no nothing is built in but there are apps for that and some of them are free. . the major antivirus companies have paid apps that are good.

This is a refurbished computer, works beautifully with no issues. You MUST use anti-virus software to protect to protect your computer

Windows 8.1 includes very basic virus protection in the form of Windows Defender, it is not a comprehensive solution but it should suffice for most basic users.

Yes Windows XP installed ready to go . We do not provide any virus protection or any additional software. But the OS and device drivers are installed before it leaves our shop.
